Ellomay Capital Reports Results for the Third Quarter of 2014
 
Tel-Aviv, Israel, December 31, 2014 – Ellomay Capital Ltd. (NYSE MKT: ELLO; TASE: ELOM) (“Ellomay” or the “Company”) an emerging operator in the renewable energy and energy infrastructure sector, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014.
 
Financial Highlights

·
Revenues were approximately $5.2 million and $12.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Following the approval by the Italian parliament in August 2014 and the conversion into law of the Italian decree, executed by the Italian President in June 2014, providing for a decrease in the Feed-in-Tariff (“FiT”) guaranteed to existing photovoltaic plants with installed capacity of more than 200 kW, the Company decided to elect the option that will entail an approximate 8% reduction in the incentive over the remaining FiT period (originally 20 years starting the connection to the grid) commencing January 1, 2015 with respect to all of its Italian photovoltaic plants. The Company recognized impairment charges of approximately $0.6 million in connection with this new legislation.
 
·
Gain on bargain purchase was approximately $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. In July 2014, the Company consummated the acquisition of three photovoltaic (solar) plants with an aggregate capacity of approximately 5.6MWp (the “PV Plants”). The PV Plants are ground mounted fixed technology plants located in Murcia, Spain, are already constructed and operating and were connected to the Spanish national grid in 2011. The PV Plants were acquired from a Spanish company whose German parent company has entered into insolvency proceedings. The PV Plants and all associated assets and rights were purchased by the Company for an aggregate purchase price of approximately Euro 9.5 million (approximately US$13 million).The Company’s results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 do not include the results of the PV Plants for six months ended June 30, 2014, as the closing date of the acquisition of the PV Plants was July 17, 2014.
 
The Company performed a preliminary analysis of the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and a preliminary and provisional purchase price allocation and recorded gain on bargain purchase (negative goodwill) in the amount of approximately $3.7 million based upon management’s best estimate of the value as a result of such preliminary analysis. Negative goodwill represents the excess of the Company’s share in the fair value of acquired identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of an acquisition. The provisional amounts recognized may be adjusted during the 12 month period following the acquisition in accordance with IFRS 3 as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information on the fair value of assets and liabilities becomes available. Therefore, actual amounts recorded upon the finalization of the valuation may differ materially from the information presented in this release.
 
·
General and administrative expenses were approximately $1.1 million and $3.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. The general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 included expenses in the amount of approximately $0.6 million, such as payment of bonuses to employees, expenses in connection with a pumped storage project and expenses in connection with a pre-bid agreement executed with respect to a joint offer to acquire participating interests in two exploration and drilling licenses off-shore Israel.
 
 
 

 
 
·
Financial expenses, net were approximately $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, mainly due to swap payments and interest payment and expenses due on and connected to our Series A Debentures.
 
·
Company’s share of income of investee accounted for at equity was approximately $1.9 million and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, as the power plant operated by Dorad Energy, Ltd. (“Dorad”) successfully commenced commercial operation in May 2014.
 
·
Net income was approximately $5.4 million and $4.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.
 
·
Total other comprehensive loss was approximately $7.1 million and $8.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, mainly due to presentation currency translation adjustments as a result of fluctuations in the Euro/USD exchange rates.
 
·
Total comprehensive loss was approximately $1.7 million and $3.3 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.
 
·
Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $5.1 million and $10.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.
 
·
Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $1.5 million and $1.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.
 
·
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company extended an additional aggregate amount of approximately $4 million to U. Dori Energy Infrastructures Ltd. (“Dori Energy”) in connection with Dorad’s funding requirements from Dori Energy pursuant to the agreement between Dorad and its shareholders.
 
·
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company repaid a loan from Discount bank in the amount of Euro 13.5 million (approximately $18.6 million) and Ellomay PV Two S.r.l., a wholly-owned Italian subsidiary of the Company, repaid a loan to an Italian bank (Unicredit S.p.A.) in the amount of approximately Euro 4.6 million (approximately $6.3 million), as this loan was under terms less beneficial to the Company compared to alternative financing resources.
 
·
As of December 15, 2014, the Company held approximately $20.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately $4 million in short-term deposits, approximately $3.6 million marketable securities and approximately $5.4 million in restricted cash.
 
Ran Fridrich, CEO and a board member of Ellomay commented: “The Company’s results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 reflect the increase in the Company’s revenues despite the devaluation of the Euro against the US dollar. The Company enjoyed income from Dorad’s operations for the first time as well as the revenues from the three newly acquired PV projects in Spain commencing July 2014. The Company is engaged in the development stage of a pumped-storage project in Manara Cliff in Israel and continues to seek suitable business opportunities in order to increase its operations.”
 
Information for the Company’s Series A Debenture Holders
 
As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s Net Financial Debt (as such term is defined in the Series A Debentures Deed of Trust) was approximately $26.3 million (consisting of approximately $14 million of short-term and long-term debt from banks and other interest bearing financial obligations and approximately $52.6 million in connection with the Series A Debentures issuances (in January and June 2014), net of approximately $30 million of cash and cash equivalents and net of approximately $10.3 million of project finance and related hedging transactions of the Company’s subsidiaries).

 
 

 
 
Use of NON-IFRS Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, gain on bargain purchase, financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents this measure in order to enhance the understanding of the Company’s historical financial performance and to enable comparability between periods. While the Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account the Company’s commitments, including capital expenditures, and restricted cash and, accordingly, is not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. Not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. The Company uses the term “Adjusted EBITDA” to highlight the fact that for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 the Company deducted Impairment charges in connection with the new legislation Italy and that for the year ended December 31, 2013 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 the Company deducted the gain on bargain purchase from the net income. The Adjusted EBITDA is otherwise fully comparable to EBITDA information which has been previously provided for prior periods. See the reconciliation between the net income (loss) and the Adjusted EBITDA presented at the end of this Press Release.

Accordingly, the share of losses of investee accounted for under the equity method and re-evaluation of option to acquire additional shares in the investee to Operating Profit to reflect more appropriately the Company’s operations as a holding company operating in the business of energy and infrastructure. Comparative amounts were reclassified for consistency.

Accordingly, the share of losses of investee accounted for under the equity method and re-evaluation of option to acquire additional shares in the investee to Operating Profit to reflect more appropriately the Company’s operations as a holding company operating in the business of energy and infrastructure. Comparative amounts were reclassified for consistency.

Italian PV Market
  The Italian government adopted the European most
 common incentive scheme- Feed In Tariff (FiT). The
 energy authority in Italy (GSE) pays a long-term
 nominal rate per every kilo-watt hour that is
 produced by a PV plant
on top of the price of
 electricity the PV plant receives on electricity that is
 transferred to the grid .
  FiT rate depends on:
  Connection date
  Size of the plant
  Location
  The FiT is guaranteed for 20 years, starting at
 the connection date. *
  Italy has high level of radiance in European terms
 (1,200-1,600 kWh/kWp).
  The most attractive regions are in the center and
 south of Italy, where the radiance is the highest and
 the regional regulation is less stringent.

the plants are entitled to sell the electricity in the SPOT price, approximately 5 Eurocents/KWh. Pursuant to new Italian legislation adopted in
August 2014, a decrease of approximately 8% in the FiT guaranteed to the plants will be implemented commencing on January 1, 2015.

Appendix A - Adjusted EBITDA
 Use of NON-IFRS Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, gain on bargain purchase,
 financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents this measure in order to enhance the
 understanding of the Company’s historical financial performance and to enable comparability between periods. While the
 Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, Adjusted EBITDA
 should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data
 prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account the
 Company’s commitments, including capital expenditures, and restricted cash and, accordingly, is not necessarily indicative
 of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. Not all companies calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner,
 and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. The
 Company’s Adjusted EBITDA may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor is it meant to be
 predictive of potential future results. The Company uses the term “Adjusted EBITDA” to highlight the fact that for the nine
 months ended September 30, 2014 the Company deducted Impairment charges in connection with the new legislation Italy
 and that for the year ended December 31, 2013 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 the
 Company deducted the gain on bargain purchase from the net income. The Adjusted EBITDA is otherwise fully comparable
 to EBITDA information which has been previously provided for prior periods. See the reconciliation between the net income
 (loss) and the Adjusted EBITDA presented below.
